Franks clearly regressed mentally despite the offseason narrative that he's matured and is a dark horse heisman candidate. I think the praise he received actually made him more unstable and ego driven.
Physically, in some ways he did look a little better by checking down and making some good decisions to tuck and run. However, he was a turnover machine and made exactly one good deep throw.
The more concerning piece is the strutting around, camera mugging, ball punting after the game that are clear indicators that he doesn't understand leadership. Just Google 'Franks' and 'mature' and there's like a million articles talking about how he's transitioned into a leader. I saw the opposite of that last night. It's even more laughable that Mullen talked to him about it and he STILL continued the behavior.
I think you can extrapolate a lot of issues with the discipline and team culture just from the behavior in the second half and post game obliviousness about the performance. Teams take their cues from leadership at the top--in this case Franks and Mullen. Reminds me of 2015 UGA where our players were barking at Bama players in the tunnel and they absolutely murdered us. The wheels quickly came off for Richt after that.

He doesn't look confident. Never has. He did make a couple nice throws but he also made some bad ones and the turnovers were mostly on him. I'm not sure what Auburn has this year and the game is still several weeks away, but I can tell you that based on last night I'm not overly concerned about facing him in Gainesville.

C- to D. He made some throws but still showed inaccuracies and committed the cardinal sin of football....he didn’t protect the ball.
The thing is that he is at the best he will be. He is just not a star. He doesn’t have the attitude to the great. Too selfish.

He's a head case and refuses to mature.
It's maddening.

When he has time and a clean pocket, he can make some really nice throws. He has a massive arm and has great mechanics when he takes his time. When he’s under the slightest bit of pressure, his mechanics crumble and makes bad decisions and bad throws.
He also needs to develop some touch on shorter passes. I don’t think it hurt them last night but him throwing rockets on screens will cause some drops.

If he hasn't by now, he never will.
As of right now Florida, particularly Franks, is facing the dreaded "the whole is lesser then the sum of its parts." They aren't playing at their level of talent.

Thought Mullen would be tougher on his QB than this.
The clown was running around the stadium like the game was over then came in and threw a pick the very next play.
Disaster waiting to happen.

LOL- this actually makes sense. Has the physical tools, shows flashes of great ability, but most of the time is dog shite.

Obviously I'll give him an F+ because his stats were okay, but I really want to know what you guys think.
He looked terrible when asked to find a secondary receiver

Pretty common with young men that grow up without a father figure.

People could probably tolerate h more if he wasn't a weak minded idiot.
He worries about so much shite and talks so much shite.
That's why when he has bad games people pile on.

C to D. Can't turn it ova at the QB spot. His demeanor is an F, waaaay to worried about what the fans thinks. Play the game and stop talking to the crowd.
